we observed the acumen with
which he took two bites at cherry when
a cherry offered, and reduced the aver
age down by taking less than half a
bite at an apple when the apple was
wrinkled or withered. Indeed so pro-
miscuous was the kissing on that day,
lively yet In memory, that those who
stood about under the friendship of the
hero, caught many and divers crumbs of
the feast. The ladies always loved and
admired the gallant Gordon, and with
reason.
But this kissing of General Morgan

of Tennessee, Nashville aud Chatta-
nooga, pressing a cordial invitation
upon Democratic President to give
the citizens of these cities and the

Senator Sherman and the Ohio
Convention,

Senator Sherman has grown tired of
playing the role Of a Presidential as
piration without the solid backing Of
his own State. In the National Con-
vention Of 1880 and again in that Of
1884 he failed to receive the united
support of the Ohio delegation. The
importance of such support is too OBJ
vious to escape the notice of political
manager OF Mr., Sherman's experience.
In order to secure it for next year
he gave out word some time ago that
the coming Republican State Con-
vention must indorse him as the
choice Of Ohio for the Presidential
nomination or he would not enter the
field. If the Convention which is to
meet this week had been left to deal
with the matter without manipulation
it would probably have given the
Senator leave to Withhold his name, for
it is evident that the Buckeye repub-
liCans are not now, any more than
in 1880 or 1884, unit in his
favor. Seeing this, Mr.. Sherman and
his hackers, as is shown in our Toledo
despatch this morning, have been
working and will continue their efforts
to capture the Convention and wiring
from it the desired Endorsement. Such
Endorsement would doubtless be OF
some advantage, but that it would
secure solid Ohio delegation for
Sherman in 1888 by no means follows
The delegates to the National Con
vention will not be chosen until next
year, and theirpreference OF candidates
will be determined by other causes
than the action of this weeks Con.
vention.
But here arises an interesting
question. Suppose Senator Sherman
fails to secure the Endorsement he
seeks, or suppose he gets it but moi
the unanimous delegation next year
will he and his hackers then give the
republican nominee the cold shoulder
as some of the stalwarts did to Blaine
in this State in 1884? These are mat
ters of more than idle speculation
They may have a very decided ant
even disastrous effect on the re
publican votes of Ohio next year
